My list in Gen 6 edition.
1) The concept alone makes it have my best design in the series.
2) It battles like a champ and won't pull any punches.
3) It has various kinds of sets you can try out with it and most of them are good.
4) Its Shiny form has some nice colors going for it.
5) It has 2 of my favorite types in the series.

In terms of others I can't really decide. Although I have a few.
Aegislash and his boys.

Fuck that! My lists are just way too shape-shifty and I have become very fickle. This is the new list.
1) Tyranitar/Garchomp/Excadrill/Aegislash
2) Scizor/Gengar/Venusaur
3) Palkia/Mewtwo/Blaziken

Re: What's your favorite Pokemon?

I always tend to surprise people when I tell them my favourite Pokemon is Steelix.

Positives:
Incredible Physical defence at 200, with a passable 75 HP
Under Trick Room (and with correct investment in attack), this thing can be a devastating sweeper.
Good movepool and access to the elemental fangs gives it some variety
Can also be used as a wall with stealth rock, rest and sleep talk

Negatives:
Slow. Very very slow.
Weaknesses to common typings like Fighting, Ground and Water make it difficult to use within a team.
Without a doubt, Excadrill is the better Ground/Steel type if you wanted to stick with that typing.

Honourable mentions are similar to those above
Volcarona -I didn't try using this thing until Slowflake showed what a devastating sweeper it could be. Quiver Dance away!
Eelektross -I love physical Electric types and Eelektross does all that but can work as a mixed sweeper.
Lapras/Walrein -I like these two for the same reason: bulky and very good in rain/hail.
Crobat - Underrated.
Aegislash -I feel like Game Freak did such a good job at making a sword Pokemon into an actual Uber level threat that it's hard to believe how much this thing
went from being the cool sword Pokemon everyone wanted to the one you HAD to have on your team in competitive play.

Re: What's your favorite Pokemon?

From the start of the series I have always loved Charizard.
I am one that have used fire types faster than others. I have a Typlosion, Charizard, Houndoom always ready to use. Yet I swap between those 3 when creating my team. So that it's always balanced.

Have close to always used a Charizard when possible in any game I had. Starting from Red. Got a shiny Charizard as of somewhere last year. A close friend he has become
